My friend Derek had been contemplating a new car purchase for years. He finally pulled the trigger on a 2015 Lexus IS350. Gorgeous vehicle. The dealer offered to add a paint protection package for $800. Needless to say, applying a paint protecting sealant is NOT a $800 affair. Derek and I sealed his paint using Menzerna's "Power Lock" polymer sealant. It was easy to apply using a foam applicator pad, and it buffed off effortlessly with a plush microfibre towel. The process took less than an hour and that's mostly due to the fact that we are both perfectionists. We applied a liberal coat of Griot's Garage Glass Sealant to the exterior glass. His car is well positioned to handle the coming winter.
